I enjoy having food cooked and served to me, as long as it's something that will make my body happy, something that tastes good and is healthy. It's very disappointing to be offered food that isn't really what I want or need. This past...
Traveling food
I took the time to prepare food for my flight, knowing that I would leave mid-day and arrive late in San Antonio, where I'm teaching and mentoring with Saybrook University's School of Mind-Body Medicine at the residential conference. I...
A Week of Mindful Choices
I have been careful this week in my food choices and amounts, and I am feeling more energetic and lighter in response. Looking forward to a bit more range in my choices on Saturday--a planned indulgence day! I am pleased to have made an...
